JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers: Engaged!

After 10 weeks, 25 men and even more controversies than that, The Bachelorette spoilers were proven 100 percent correct last night:

The burning question of who JoJo Fletcher picked was finally answered on season finale, and her final rose went to her season-long MVP.

She and Jordan Rodgers are engaged and going public with their love, following a tumultuous season – and finale – of the ABC franchise.

“I Know I Can Trust Him,” exclaim’s People’s cover story today, a stark contrast from previous magazine covers of JoJo and/or JoRo.

Needless to say, coverage of their courtship hasn’t been entirely positive – although they’ve been forced to stay silent and hidden until now.

Will things turn around in the court of public opinion now that the veil of silence has been lifted and their love is allowed to flourish openly?

Or will they crumble quickly like so many other Bachelor couples before them, embroiled by overwhelming tension, bitterness and pressure?

Time will tell, but the show’s track record is, well, beyond bad.

Just saying. We wish them the best, but it’s a long road ahead. To their credit, they appear to have not missed a beat since the premiere.

From night one, the sparks between them were undeniable.

So, too, was the suspicion that seemed to follow Rodgers.

Yet all the talk of his feud with Aaron Rodgers, his NFL star brother, and rumors about his past girlfriends and motives for going on the show?

“I had this immediate sense of comfort with him,” JoJo says.

“From that first initial interaction, I knew I could fall in love.”

Even as Fletcher’s feelings for her other suitors grew, and animosity toward him grew among some co-stars (and fans), she never wavered.

The 25-year-old real estate developer says that no matter how great Robby Hayes was, she had no doubt Rodgers is the one for her.

“On those final days, I thought about who I couldn’t imagine saying goodbye to,” she says. “It was always Jordan. And that’s how I knew.”

And when it came to proposing, despite how things were depicted on The Bachelorette finale, he didn’t hesitate in calling the right play.

“I was so ready,” says the former NFL player.

People can say what they want to say and believe what they want to believe about him, but for Jordan, “JoJo is the one. I know that.”

“No matter what, we’ll get through anything.”

They certainly looked the part last night.

In their first public appearance as a couple, on The Bachelorette: After the Final Rose special, they could not have painted a rosier picture.

“We woke up the day after the proposal and we were just so incredibly happy,” says Rodgers. “It was the best decision we ever made.”

Says Fletcher: “We went through this entire crazy journey that somehow led us to each other. We’re so ready to start our life together!”

What kind of life will that be, and for how long? Is there a lot more dirt on Jordan that has yet to come out, or is the worst behind them?

You tell us in the comments below, readers:

Think these two will actually last?

The Bachelorette Season Finale Recap: Who Did JoJo Fletcher Choose?!

After three months of drama, on and off screen, The Bachelorette season finale is upon us once again, and this one should be something.

Will The Bachelorette spoilers be proven correct, or will an epic twist rock JoJo, Jordan, Robby and all of Bachelor Nation to the core?

If we want to channel our inner Chris Harrison for a moment, this may indeed be the most anticipated, controversial finale of all time.

JoJo Fletcher, the beautiful Dallas real estate developer, has spent 10 weeks whittling down 25 suitors to Jordan Rodgers and Robby Hayes.

All the while, dispatching the likes of unstable Chad Johnson, affable Chase McNary, honorable Luke Pell and more. It’s been a wild ride.

So would JoJo give the final rose to Rodgers, the smooth, shady brother of NFL star Aaron Rodgers, with whom he no longer communicates?

Or would it go to Hayes, another jock who shares palpable chemistry with JoJo … and allegations of playing fast and loose with the truth.

Yes, both gentlemen (term used loosely) met her family as Fletcher grappled with the most difficult and consequential decision of her life.

Who does she see a brighter future with – and can she trust that person with her heart, especially given the doubts surrounding either?

Rodgers’ history with his own family is suspect, as is his past with Brittany Farrar. Robby and Hope Higginbotham could be even worse.

So which guy got the rose, if anyone? Did they get engaged – and perhaps most consequentially of all, are they still engaged right now?

Man alive, the producers sure know how to cut a slick series finale, keeping us guessing until the bitter end how things might turn out.

JoJo’s family seemed to favor Robby up until the end, and he sure looked like a man fully confident that his proposal would be accepted.

Jordan, meanwhile, did NOT ask JoJo’s family if he could marry her, and seemed genuinely conflicted as to what he personally wanted.

One would be forgiven for feeling like a Robby Hayes upset was night until the 11th hour – and Fletcher’s final rose ceremony – Monday.

Not the case.

After all that, things ended almost exactly as predicted. Two hours of intense drama later, The Bachelorette spoilers were proven correct.

As usual. JoJo Fletcher picked Jordan Rodgers. She “wanted it to be” Robby, she told him in tears, but the heart wants what it wants.

JoRo.

He proposed, she said yes, and they all lived happily ever after … or did they? The $ 10 million-dollar question, however, remains this:

Are JoJo and Jordan still together?!

For weeks on end now, he says, “This has been coming too loud and too often to ignore. I trust these sources who have told me this.”

“Put it this way, I’ve had way more people tell they aren’t together anymore than ones that said they are,” the Oracle of Spoilers adds.

“Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, is saying that everything is great, they’re in love, and things are working out perfectly,” Steve reiterated.

Asked by one Twitter fan if he was speculating about the breakup of Jordan and JoJo, the blogger stated that it’s his job “not to guess.”

Sounds like a pretty definitive IT’S OVER to us.

As for why this may not square with what we see on the After the Final Rose special? They could be putting on a good front, basically.

Wait until the media circus dies down, preserve some element of the facade that the show helps people fall in love, then quietly part ways.

We’re not saying that’s the case, but … if it were the case, we would not be the slightest bit surprised, and the reason for this is simple:

At some point, JoJo had to learn the truth.

About Jordan Rodgers, about Aaron Rodgers, about Brittany Farrar, about his other ex(es), his motives for going on the show … everything.

We’re not even saying we know what “it” is, only that she had to learn it. And, by virtue of there being something, or things, to learn?

Let’s just say we’re talking about obstacles that are obviously complex and highly emotionally charged at best, or deal-breakers at worst.

If it’s not over already … give it a few weeks.

Agree? Disagree? Did JoJo make the right choice, and regardless of how you feel about that question, will they make it to the altar?

Jordan Rodgers Lands SEC Network Job: Did He USE JoJo Fletcher?

THG WARNING: This, like many other articles on the subject, contains The Bachelorette spoilers pertaining to who wins this season. 

Since the onset of the ABC summer guilty pleasure, fans – buoyed by a deluge of tabloid speculation – have been wondering the following:

Is JoJo Fletcher’s frontrunner on The Bachelorette, Jordan Rodgers, just using the brunette beauty to shamelessly boost his career?

That may seem more or less like a regurgitation of the same question asked every year of some contestant to stir up drama: 

Is he/she there on The Bachelor(ette) for the right reasons?!

Except, in Jordan Rogers’ specific, suspicious case:

1. He’s been put on BLAST by Brittany Farrar, his former girlfriend, for cheating on her prior to appearing on the hit show;

2. His own big brother possibly kind of hates him;

3. Everyone else in the house is calling him out;

4. He actually did get a job in broadcasting!

View Slideshow: JoJo Fletcher: The Hottest Bachelorette EVER?!

We’re nearly on the cusp of learning who JoJo Fletcher will pick with her final rose this season, and Jordan seems like a heavy favorite.

Despite, or perhaps because of this reason, many of the other guys have openly questioned Rodgers and his motives for doing the show.

It’s not just a small, vocal group of skeptics.

The general consensus among suitors, fans and, well, Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers is that the former NFL backup is sort of shady.

Rodgers insisting he is single has done little to dissuade haters who believe he joined the show to stay in the spotlight and be famous.

Having failed to gain traction in the NFL like superstar brother Aaron, he’s turned his attention to TV – sports broadcasting in particular.

Now, in a turn of events that supports this theory …

JoJo Fletcher CONFRONTS Jordan Rodgers About Cheating Rumors: WATCH

The SEC Network, which covers the NCAA powerhouse Southeastern Conference is owned by ESPN, announced it has hired Jordan.

The details of his new gig have not been disclosed, but the book on Rodgers is that he went on The Bachelorette for just this reason.

Or to be The Bachelor … unless he won this thing.

In any case, many eyeballs rolled at this news.

His former Bachelorette competitor and nemesis Chad Johnson took to Twitter to share exactly how he assesses the current situation.

Chad, who hilariously threatened to find Rodgers after the show, said, it looks like he “got exactly what he hoped to get” out of joining.

Pretty awesome what a troll that guy is.

Assuming that JoJo does bequeath her final rose upon Jordan Rodgers, is there any chance it lasts beyond the end of this calendar year?

JoJo Fletcher CONFRONTS Aaron Rodgers About Cheating Rumors: WATCH!

Earlier this week, we learned that JoJo Fletcher would be confronting suitor Jordan Fletcher about past cheating rumors during an upcoming episode of The Bachelorette.

And now, we have the video of the awkward encounter.

Jordan, the former NFL quarterback and brother of star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, has been a frontrunner since the season premiere when he shared a totally open-mouthed kiss with JoJo.

But something was fishy about the guy from the get-go.

For starters, his ex-girlfriend Brittany Farrar called Jordan out as a cheater on Instagram right after his first episode aired.

Others suspect he"s participating in the dating show for the wrong reasons, specifically, trying to regain his place in the spotlight.

Now it"s been revealed that JoJo actually met Jordan"s ex in Dallas before the show began filming, and her words were far from flattering.

“Brittany told JoJo that Jordan wasn’t a great boyfriend,” an insider told Us Weekly. “She said there were trust issues.”

Now, JoJo"s putting Jordan on the hot seat, and he doesn"t appear thrilled.

She brings up her meeting with Brittany and asks Jordan to explain his side.

The dude is obviously uncomfortable, and you can almost see the beads of sweat bloom from his brow as he takes a sip of water then nervously runs his hand through his hair.

"That"s just, uh, interesting," Jordan tells her. "I don"t even know what to say there."

He finally goes on to explain that he was so focused on football at the time, and he admits to not being the best person.

"Was there cheating?" JoJo finally inquires, and the producers cut it off with that cliff hanger.

So I guess you"ll have to watch to find out. Or check out The Bachelorette spoilers to see if JoJo gives him the axe.

JoJo Fletcher to Jordan Rodgers: So, Are You a Cheater?!

Next week on ABC, JoJo Fletcher asks front-running suitor Jordan Rodgers the million-dollar question on viewers’ minds this season:

Are you as shady as The Bachelorette spoilers are saying?!

Okay, she won’t use that wording, but the point remains:

Jordan has been on her radar since the moment he stepped out of the limo, but fans and competitors alike are suspicious of the athlete.

Is he there for the right reasons? Or self-promotion?

Moreover, is he just a shady dude who threw his girlfriend under the bus (not literally, just emotionally) before auditioning for the show?

Rumors that Jordan Rodgers cheated on Brittany Farrar have been spreading like wildfire ever since … well, Farrar put him on blast.

Fletcher, 25, has admitted that she knew he was cast on The Bachelorette prior to taping the show, but says the two had no contact.

Are you ready for an even more bizarre twist, though?

JoJo had an encounter with none other than Brittany Farrar – Jordan’s ex, and BFF of his brother Aaron Rodgers’ girlfriend Olivia Munn!

We repeat, last winter in Dallas, JoJo met THE Brittany! 

View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Season 12: Meet JoJo’s Men!

“Brittany told JoJo that Jordan wasn’t a great boyfriend,” recounts an insider to Us Weekly. “She said there were trust issues.”

As a result, when you watch The Bachelorette online next week, expect Fletcher to confront Rodgers, 27, during their candlelit dinner.

According to a show insider quoted by the celebrity magazine, “Jordan cops to flirting with other women, but he denies he was unfaithful.” 

Not surprisingly for those who know who makes JoJo Fletcher’s final four this season, his explanation saves him … for the time being.

Fletcher, says the source, “chooses to believe Jordan.”

And yet, at the same time, something is decidedly off.

“She feels like she’s the one courting him. She continues to have doubts,” says another show source, but are her fears a bit overblown?

“He’s a good person,” says a friend of Jordan’s.

“He’s a ladies’ man, but not a player.”

Somehow we’re guessing that friend isn’t friends with Aaron Rodgers and Olivia Munn, from what we hear about their opinion of Jordan.

JoJo Fletcher on Chad"s Exit from The Bachelorette: Violence Is Not the Answer!

For anyone who watched the special two-night extravaganza of The Bachelorette this week, you know it could’ve simply been billed as The Chad Show.

You know Chad – the good-looking, veiny-muscled meathead villain who threatened all the guys in the house and is likely now being scoped out as a possible hit man for Donald Trump.

Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher shares her thoughts on Chad and the rest of the suitors in a blog full of exclamation points for People, and makes her feelings clear.

“Wow, that was intense. Just watching it was intense. And I was there when it all went down! Just … Chad,” she starts.

However, even though she was there, JoJo is still confused about what transpired between Evan and Chad.

“Did Evan really try to push Chad and that’s what provoked Chad to rip his shirt?” she asked.

“Would Evan actually do something like that? Someone needs to slow down that footage and figure out what really went down!”

Nevertheless, she kept the Chadster around and gave him a rose, almost certainly at the behest of ABC who was like, girl, just keep him for one more rose ceremony, just one – he’s a ratings darling!

Also likely the product of producer prodding, JoJo chose Chad and his mortal enemy, muscle-bound Alex with the hero complex, for a two-on-one date. 

View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Season 12: Meet JoJo’s Men!

“NO ONE, could have prepared me for the challenge of a two-on-one date,” JoJo admits.

“And not just any two-on-one date, but one with Chad and Alex – two guys who I knew who weren’t BFFs, but two guys I definitely needed more time with.”

As you know, the date was awkward AF and the entire thing basically entailed Alex telling JoJo that Chad is an utter psycho who threatened to find Jordan after the show ended and beat his ass.

And that was all JoJo needed to hear. She gave the rose to Alex almost by default because she didn’t want to marry Chad and wake up one night with a noose around her neck or something.

While she tries to be nice and suggest that Chad’s really a “decent person” underneath it all and feels bad because he lost his mom this year, she ultimately knew she had to ditch the douchebag.

“But it still doesn’t excuse his behavior,” she shared. “You can’t threaten people, no matter what you’ve been through. I don’t want that in a friend, and I definitely don’t want that in a husband.”

Look out for a reality show starring Chad sometime in the next year. He’s already calling himself “The Chadelor.”

JoJo Fletcher Reveals Top 3 Frontrunners on The Bachelorette!

On the season premiere of The Bachelorette, we met all 25 of JoJo Fletcher"s suitors, and they made quite an impression.

There was the guy who came as Santa Claus, the former NFL quarterback, the dude in the kilt and, of course, the one who got drunk and took off his clothes and flexed.

Yeah.

Now, JoJo Fletcher speaks to ET and reveals her top three frontrunners after the first group date at a firefighter academy.

Sorry, folks, it wasn"t drunk naked man.

"I would say three people that stood out to me so far has been Jordan, Luke, and I kind of picked up on Robby today," she admitted, sounding a little surprised.

"Robby was a little dark horse for me the first night, but after seeing him today, I have a good feeling about him."

We knew JoJo felt an instant connection with Jordan on the first night, as he was the only one she shared a sexy kiss with.

Okay, she gave a peck to that one guy who kinda dared her to do it, but I"ve exchanged hotter kisses with my dog.

Rumors swirled earlier this week, alleging JoJo knew Jordan in advance of the show, but while she admitted to knowing who he was, she claimed they had never met.

During the premiere, Luke came out on a unicorn, giving a nod back to JoJo"s arrival on The Bachelor in a unicorn mask. 

The trick apparently helped to earn him favorite status, and he said he and JoJo "had a connection today" after the firehouse date.

"Dark horse" Robby seems to have redeemed himself from a poor impression he left during the first episode, and our bachelorette is pleased she gave him another shot.

"I think honestly the first night he was so nervous. So nervous he couldn"t say anything," JoJo explained. "And then today he"s just totally himself, and it"s great."

If you really can"t wait to see if these three wind up in the top at the season"s end, check out The Bachelorette spoilers.

Take a peek inside their date below:

JoJo Fletcher Explains WHY THE HELL She Kept Drunken Weirdo Daniel

After watching Monday"s season premiere of The Bachelorette, fans undoubtedly engaged in some deep intellectual discourse over JoJo Fletcher"s choices.

Most specifically, WHY ON EARTH DID SHE GIVE A ROSE TO THAT WEIRDO DANIEL??

If you watched, you know that he first awkwardly tried to recreate the popular "Damn, Daniel" meme by exclaiming, "Damn, JoJo" during their one-on-one, then made her feel dumb when she wasn"t familiar with the trend.

Then he got sloppy drunk in the house and took off all his clothes, save for a pair of barely-there bikini briefs.

And then this happened:

Okay, JoJo admits she didn"t see that part. 

But she did see him strip out of his formal wear and dive into the pool, even though it wasn"t a pool party.

He was definitely the standout freak of the evening, and that"s saying a lot given a different dude came and stayed the entire duration dressed as Santa Claus.

JoJo explained to E! News why she extended a rose to Daniel over five other suitors who didn"t make complete asses of themselves.

"Everyone"s like, "Why did you keep Daniel?!"" she started.

Yeah. Why??

"He was some comedic relief for me that night," she said. Okay, we"ll give him that.

"I was like, this guy has to be different when he"s not just hammered right now," she added. "So I just wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt."

Um, alright. But here"s our guess. ABC is the party that really wanted to keep him around, because people tune in for the crazies, and maybe he"ll get naked again or play the harmonica with his butt.

With Daniel around, anything can happen.

Check out The Bachelorette spoilers to see if Daniel sticks around till the end.

 

 

JoJo Fletcher: Did She Know Jordan Rodgers Pre-The Bachelorette?!

The Bachelorette star JoJo Fletcher admits she knew who contestant Jordan Rodgers was before officially meeting him on the series.

But that has nothing to do with how anything played out (see The Bachelorette spoilers for some very interesting scoop), she swears.

ET talked to the Season 12 star, who acknowledged that she knew the 27-year-old former NFL player was one of her suitors in 2016.

As viewers saw Monday, Jordan Rodgers, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers" younger brother, became an early favorite.

"A week before this whole thing started I think his name got leaked, and it was kind of all over the Internet," Fletcher told the network.

"So, you know, it"s like "Jordan Rodgers, brother of Aaron" … so that"s what I knew going into it. Before I met him … I knew just that tidbit."

"Nothing else, and I don"t think it made a difference either way. I don"t follow football closely, so it"s not like it made a huge difference."

"But I definitely knew that about him going into it."

She adamantly denies reports that she and Jordan Rodgers already knew each other or had even communicated prior to The Bachelorette.

"There"s zero truth to that," she stresses. "The only thing that I knew about him was that he was potentially going to be part of the cast."

"So, I don"t know where people are coming up with these things. That first night was the first night I"ve ever seen him in my life."

"[We had] no conversation, even on the Internet."

Fletcher mused on Rodgers" "first impression" and the subsequent rose by that name that she gave him during the premiere episode:

"Sometimes when you"re with somebody, you automatically have that sense of comfort and peace … the conversation flowed, he"s obviously cute."

"It was an easy conversation on a very stressful night."

As for controversy of Jordan"s romantic history – he was put on blast Brittany Farrar after the show – that topic has not been addressed.

By Jordan or JoJo, at least. It"s the talk of the web right now, and from what we"re hearing about that season, we haven"t heard the last of it.

JoJo Fletcher: I Fell For Multiple Guys on The Bachelorette!

JoJo Fletcher has only had one real kiss on The Bachelorette so far, but it’s only been one week, and she promises plenty more to come.

NOTE: The Bachelorette spoilers will shed light on at least four guys who get to experience that … and possibly more in some cases.

Fletcher tells People that she racked up quite the smooch list: “I definitely kissed more guys in a few weeks than I had in my entire life!”

Not that she’s proud of it, per se … it’s just the nature of the show.

“You can’t really censor yourself,” explains the 25-year-old.

“I have such a short amount of time.”

As for what she’s looking for in a guy, the Dallas-based star says “I want someone honest and genuine and someone who can make me laugh.”

“And I like to think I have a pretty good read on people,” she says of the selection process, “and that my gut steers me in the right way.”

Is that true of Jordan Rodgers, controversy brother of NFL star Aaron Rodgers, and this season’s anticipated bad boy Chad Johnson? 

“[Jordan and I] had an immediate connection,” Fletcher says. 

“It was like we were boyfriend and girlfriend on night one.” 

Of Chad, Fletcher says she was drawn to him in part because he was “mysterious … I knew I was going to have to keep my eye on him.

Host Chris Harrison apparently needed to do the same … and put the dude in time-out (seriously, check out the explosive trailer below).

The Bachelorette 2016 Season Preview: So Many Villains!

As for who JoJo picks, good luck getting that out of her.

“There were twists and turns and things I wasn’t expecting. But I’m stronger. I’ve grown even more. And I’m happy,” the beauty says.

She also says that she is “more confident” now that she’s been through this and that “throughout this process I had to rely just on myself.”

“I had to be really comfortable in my decision making. And through it all I stayed positive, and optimistic that I would find that true love.”

“I fell for more than one guy. And that was surprising! It’s very painful. If I only had feelings for one guy, it would have been smooth sailing.”

“But each relationship was so important to me,” she adds.

“When you get to the end, it can get really confusing.”

Indeed it can. We see it every season – or at least what the editors want us to think is genuine conflict and confusion – like clockwork.

Do you think JoJo’s on the right track so far? And which of these aspiring trophy husbands do you think would be the best fit for her?

The Bachelorette Spoilers 2016: JoJo Fletcher Final Four, WINNER Revealed!!

Filming for the upcoming season is complete, and The Bachelorette spoilers have revealed who JoJo Fletcher selects as her final rose recipient.

Moreover, we can tell you why the winner is like a walking red flag.

JoJo doesn’t even debut in the lead role until Monday, May 23.

Still, if you’re reading this, you know that like death and taxes, The Bachelorette spoilers leaking ahead of time are a guarantee in life.

Naturally, then, ever since Ben Higgins rejected JoJo for Lauren Bushnell on The Bachelor finale, speculation turned to Fletcher’s season.

Enter The Oracle of The Bachelorette Spoilers, Reality Steve.

Always at the center of it all, the man, the myth, the Dallas blogging legend is all over this season like Tyga on underage Instagram models.

Unsurprisingly, he pegged Fletcher’s favorite from the beginning – and has now confirmed the 2016 winner as that early frontrunner.

As previously reported, Wells Adams, Luke Pell, James Taylor, Jordan Rodgers and Robby Hayes make it to JoJo’s coveted final five.

Wells got the boot before the hometown dates, leaving four.

WARNING: It goes without saying, but if you don’t want The Bachelorette spoilers to give away the end of this season, turn back now!

Okay, now that we got that cautionary note out of the way …

View Slideshow: JoJo Fletcher as The Bachelorette: Official Photos!

Luke Pell and James Taylor are the fourth and third-place finishers, leaving an all-athlete finale featuring Robby Hayes and Jordan Rodgers!

The winner of this iconic Bachelorette showdown is …

Jordan Rodgers! That’s right, the younger brother of Green Bay Packers star quarterback Aaron Rodgers has actually won The Bachelorette!

Kind of hilarious that brothers of NFL signal-callers have won two of the past three seasons (Josh Murray is the brother of Aaron Murray).

Will Jordan’s engagement fare better than Josh’s to Andi Dorfman? We can tell you that he got down on one knee on the finale, and …

JoJo said yes! She and Jordan are totes engaged!

Again, those who read The Bachelorette spoilers on a regular basis know how Steve said Jordan was THE one to watch this season.

This was, like, months ago. Dude is good at his job.

Similar to last year’s season starring Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth, she had her mind made up early and she stuck to her guns.

But back to JoJo’s final two: Expect to see producers depict Robby Hayes as the villain and Jordan Rodgers as the All-American hero.

There are a number of rumors going around that will immediately make you question whether this engagement is basically DOA though:

1. The couple was actually talking to one another before the show began, a la Kaitlyn Bristowe and eventual runner-up Nick Viall last year.

Producers allegedly ignore this completely, to boot. Shady.

2. Even worse, though, are rumors Jordan is a big-time player … and we don’t mean football (though he did star in college at Vanderbilt).

Apparently, he was seriously dating another girl until the night before he left for the show, and told her he wanted to be with her afterward.

He called The Bachelorette a “business decision.” For real.

Allegedly, he’s an aspiring sportscaster’s whose goal – as stated openly to friends – was to become The Bachelor Season 21 in early 2017.

So … by winning the final rose, he actually lost the “game”?

Maybe something changed and he really fell in love with JoJo Fletcher, but needless to say, this does not bode well on its own merit.

3. Jordan Rodgers went through an ugly breakup a few years ago with ex-girlfriend Brittany Farrar … and there’s a twist to that, too. 

Farrar (above, left) is still the trainer and close friend of Olivia Munn … the gorgeous actress and model who is also Aaron Rodgers’ girlfriend!

Yes, it’s all pretty incestuous and bizarre at this point.

Interestingly, and perhaps upsettingly for Jo down the line, Aaron and Olivia are tighter with Brittany than they are with his own brother.

“Aaron and Olivia know what happened with Jordan and Brittany,” Steve writes, and while we don’t know why they split, he adds ominously:

“Needless to say, the fact they remained friends with her and Aaron and Jordan don’t have much of a relationship pretty much gives you the answer you need.”

Damnnnnn! Sorry in advance, Joelle.

Who knows, maybe this is true love at its finest and they will walk down the aisle and live happily ever and make beautiful babies together.

Given the show’s track record – and what we’re hearing about this guy before the season even begins – would you wager on that, however?

Maybe there’s still time for her to swap Jordan Rodgers for one of these dudes? (There isn’t, but open the gallery for a look at the full cast!)

JoJo Fletcher: Quitting The Bachelorette Due to Diva Demands?!

We know who The Bachelorette spoilers claim JoJo Fletcher’s favorite is this season, but might there not be a final rose winner at all?

If you believe ridiculous supermarket tabloid gossip … maybe!

While spoilers answering the question of who does JoJo Fletcher pick are already circulating, a new report in Life & Style claims this answer:

Herself! In the Kelly Taylor “I choose me” sense of course.

That’s right, this celebrity gossip source, asserts that she is not nearly the sweet, kind girl next door she pretended to be on The Bachelor.

Rather, she’s been making the lives of the cast and crew a living hell – and has threatened to quit the show and not film any more dates!

An insider close to The Bachelorette dished to Life & Style:

“The fame and attention definitely fed JoJo’s ego … [Fletcher] wouldn’t accept anything less than what she asked for.” 

How so? What does that allegedly mean?

If her requirements weren’t met, well …

JoJo “told ABC she would quit.”

Somehow, we doubt it L&S.

Seriously, come on. But in the interest of paragraphs, the tabloid alleges that JoJo made it very clear that she was calling the shots.

That included vetoing some guys from joining the show if they weren’t tall, dark-haired, and wealthy enough for her sky-high standards.

The insider went onto say that Fletcher “wanted to be treated like a queen. She’s starting to get a reputation as a demanding diva!”

While it wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility for someone in her position to develop an ego, we still aren’t buying this for a minute.

What about you? Think there’s any truth to it? Should producers have stuck with Caila Quinn? And will JoJo’s journey for love be a success?

JoJo Fletcher as The Bachelorette: Official Photos!

The first official photos of JoJo Fletcher as The Bachelorette are here, and wow, ABC is making "Fletch" happen in truly radiant fashion.

Sorry. That was just so epically bad.

It doesn"t change the fact that JoJo is looking absolutely stunning as she prepares for her journey – one already filming for the network.

If The Bachelorette spoilers are a topic that interests you, we have some interesting intel already in terms of who she"s leaning towards.

After coming in second in the competition for Ben Higgins – who said “I love you” to JoJo and fiance Lauren Bushnell – this is her time now.

She"s embracing it with flying colors.

Or red, to be exact. Fittingly, it"s the color of her dress, matching the motif of the show perfectly, and it"s a color that she looks amazing in.

Not that JoJo would look less than great wearing anything or presumably nothing, but you get what we"re saying. Red works. Very well.

Check out the first official photos of JoJo as The Bachelorette below, and see The Bachelorette promo for the first footage from Season 12.

The journey begins May 23.
